Deleted2746547User Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 I am hoping someone here can help me.... I have a mod I've been working on without any major CTD's etc. till now. And between V1.17 and V1.18 the only thing I did was add new buildings to Sloan (Basically remodeled it as part of my mod.) I'd fall back to my V1.17 but I spent a a lot of time and energy in the Sloan expansion to my mod to just start again. And the whole thing makes no sense. I didn't change game mechanics. I copied the New Steel Building and after pasting it into my cell - turned it into a Static Collection. Duplicated the interiors to the steel building and copied a few doors. I've run it through FNV edit and power up. NO major issues there (there are things I need to "clean up" but nothing that was crashing FNV at boot). I compared V1.17 and V1.18 of my mod and corrected any major differences (that I could find) - other than the Sloan expansion of course. I use Powerup and no major issues there. I can't find the bug. ANY suggestions on getting crash dump or finding what persistent ref. or other small item is mis-checked, etc. that could be causing it... versus having to start over? :wallbash: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deleted2746547User Posted November 28, 2012 Author Share Posted November 28, 2012 To the best of my knowledge I only added buildings between V1.17 and V1.18 But the content (buildings) and detail were extensive. I turned Sloan into a real town. With light posts, flowers, terraced gardens, apartments and a factory. A lot of detail I'd rather not lose. :wallbash: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When does the CTD happen? When you start the game, or when you load your save? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When does the CTD happen? When you start the game, or when you load your save? The mod and regular game boot (not mod but FNV startup) were working fine in V1.17 of my mod. I finished adding the buildings to Sloan (which I HAD been testing as I went) and went to test the final changes.... and then CTD when starting FNV. It CTDs on the Bethesda boot screen.. literally. It gets that screen and boom. It crashes. When I go back to V1.17 everything is good. Game boots fine as does the save game. I seem to have changed one little thing in the final mod save that the game doesnt like. But I've run fnv edit to compare the version changes (between 1.17 and 1.18), looked at it through FOMM and I use powerup. It should be working. And that is A LOT of work to lose over one thing that might be "checked"/enabled/disabled incorrectly ... :wallbash: :wallbash: :wallbash: :wallbash: Edited November 28, 2012 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deleted2746547User Posted November 28, 2012 Author Share Posted November 28, 2012 I'm not so averse to starting back at V1.18 but I'd hate to lose all the building I had done in V1.18 And also, if I don't know WHAT caused it, i am very likely to do it again. like I said, I had been testing V1.18 as I went... and everything was fine until the final save. :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xaranth Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Did you bung things together as an SCOL relatively early on, or did you do that right before the final revision? 'Cause I've had some serious bad luck with SCOLs. They never seem to behave the way they ought. I don't know why that would crash with a bad memory read/write exception, though.

I did one SCOL right before the last save. I had copied the New Steel Exterior pasted it in my cell and then merged it. Hmmm... I'm not sure. Weird why it would cause this crash... unless GECK just corrupted my save. About to find out.. I built the town again. Well, have started it. makes me mad though... that was a lot of work. And not just that... but you know when you have things looking artistically about as good as its going to get... very rarely (at least me) am happy with the next attempt! :pirate: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
